Collection: Pelikan Souveran 400

The Pelikan Souverän 400 collection is available in a choice of writing modes. The fountain pen utilizes a differential piston mechanism, a smooth 14-carat/585 gold nib with rhodium decor and has a transparent ink window allows you to see how much ink is left. But if you rather prefer to write with ink, but you wish to write a bit quicker than with a nib, the rollerball will be the right choice. The ballpoint pen or the mechanical pencil are perfect for quick notes.

Every Souverän is crafted with the highest precision and the writing qualities of each writing instrument is tested by hand before it comes to you.

Exclusive design, selected materials, precise elaboration and highest writing comfort: The Souverän^® fine writing instruments stands for permanent quality.

1950 was the year of birth of our model 400. Even today, this classic with a black-and-green pinstripe sleeve is still considered a symbol of the Pelikan brand worldwide. In the 1980s, the series was given the name "Souverän^®", meaning sovereign in German. However, people often refer to it by its colloquial name "Stresemann" after the striped suits worn by the Germany Foreign Minister of the name in the 1920s.

This name continues to write history today, and will do so in the future too. Today, this fountain pen exists in many variations and, despite the continual refinements of the design and technology, its fundamental mechanics remain the same. In these pens, you can witness the combination of expertise and craftsmanship in one fascinatingly smooth writing experience - prestige for highly varied demands and preferences.
